How tall is a female if her femur is 46.2 cm long?
A female is 168 cm tall if her femur is 46.2 cm long.
How tall is a male if his tibia is 50.1 cm long?
A male is 201 cm tall is his tibia is 50.1 cm long.
If a woman is 152 cm, how long is her femur, tibia, humerus, and radius?
Femur: 39 cm
Tibia: 31 cm
Humerus: 27 cm
Radius: 20 cm
If a man is 183 cm tall, then how long is his femur, tibia, humerus, and radius?
Femur: 50 cm
Tibia: 42 cm
Humerus: 36 cm
Radius: 28 cm F.U
1.For one of the bone above, graph the equations for males and females on the same set of axis. What do the X and Y intercepts represents in this problem? does this make sense?
The X intercept means that the person will have bigger bones since X is greater, and it is also growing instead of shrinking. The Y intercepts means that the total height of the person is getting bigger, since it is moving towards the 1st guaderant it is growing instead of shrinking.
